Significant weather event alert

The Township of South Frontenac is declaring a Significant Weather Event due to a major storm in the region, in accordance with Ontario Regulation 366/18.

The declaration was made at 4:30 pm on December 23, 2022. All roads and sidewalks maintained by the Municipality will be in a “state of repair” until further notice.

A significant weather event is defined as an approaching or occurring weather hazard with the potential to pose a significant danger to the users of highways, streets and roads within a municipality.

During the significant weather event, motorists and pedestrians are advised to use extra caution as the Township may not be able to meet its maintenance standards for roads and sidewalks due to a combination of heavy rain, flash freeze, blizzard-like conditions and damaging winds that is expected to last into the weekend.

Drivers and pedestrians are encouraged to avoid unnecessary travel and use caution if travelling and watch for snowplows as they continue to clear Township roads.

Roads remain open and the Township remains diligent in providing continued winter maintenance to ensure public safety.

There is no impact to other Township services, including garbage and recycling at this time.
